LSU Escalates Pursuit as Ole Miss Sets Nov. 29 Decision on Lane Kiffin

Ole Miss fixed a post–Egg Bowl announcement to steady a playoff push under growing outside interest.

Overview

  • AD Keith Carter said Ole Miss will announce Kiffin’s future on Nov. 29, one day after the Egg Bowl at Mississippi State.
  • LSU is preparing a seven-year, incentive-heavy proposal reported at $90 million or more with over $25 million in annual NIL roster funding.
  • Kiffin met Friday with Carter and Chancellor Glenn Boyce, and he remains publicly undecided while confirming he will coach the Egg Bowl.
  • Florida is still pursuing Kiffin but is now viewed by multiple outlets as trailing LSU, with Ole Miss also presenting a comparable extension that includes NIL guarantees.
  • Sources describe growing unease inside the Ole Miss program as the decision lingers, with Kiffin’s choice expected to influence other coaching searches nationwide.
